I had a great time in Chicago (although that city is just too damned cold)! Massive mahalos to James for picking me up at the airport, and whisking me off to Chef Shangri-La and Hala Kahiki. Chef Shangri-La was nicer than I expected, and every time I see Hala Kahiki I fall in love with it a little more (despite how severely it falls short in the drink department). The fabulous Hala Kahiki gift shop was closed, which was a bit of a bummer but not unexpected.

Chef Shangri-La:

Hala Kahiki:

After many false starts, I finally herded my coworkers into the Trader Vic's my last night in town, and they had a blast. Didn't get any proper pictures of the place, mostly just pics of my coworkers and a very unfortunate Menehune doll:

If you're interested in the pictures from the rest of my Chicago trip, you can see them here:

Highlights include more tiki hotspot shots, a visit to Delilah's, dinner at a stunningly beautiful and delicious Armenian restaurant, dinner at a very good Italian restaurant, a nightclub full of drunk Radiologists, and a great little bar with lots and lots of peanuts. But mostly goofy shots of people you don't know.
